<p>so before i start i want to mention i would have the urgency to pee sometimes and a burning sensation when i would per that would come and go.. ok so i had unprotected sex with my bf and a couple days after i started to have mild flank pain along with my other symptoms. i go to the clinic and was told to give a per sample and that it might be a uti so she gives me cipro until then. i come back to follow up and it showed a slight elevation in my white blood count and some blood but no bacteria. she then presses on my kidneys to see how they react and my right side is sensative. she then tells me to get blood drawn to rule out any stds and assumes it might be bacterial vaginitis... i come back for my results and they’re negative, and again i take a pee test that comes back negative but still with a little blood. she then suggests doing a swap test and i schedule my day for that. by this time my flank pain is more constant while finishing up my cipro so i go to the store to get monastat once i assumed i might have a yeast infection and that clears up my flank pain. the day comes for my swap test and a few days later i’m told i have chlamydia. i’m unsure how that never showed up in any of my blood work or pee sample but yet i was positive. i took the single dose drink 11/22/2019 and all my symptoms cleared for a while and then the slight burning came back with the urge to pee and slight flank pain. i know it says it takes 7 days to be cleared of chlamydia but shouldn’t i have no symptoms then ? i’m wondering if maybe i still have chlamydia and the medication didn’t work or could i have something else perhaps a uti even though i didn’t show any bacteria in my urine ..??</p>

Hi @yas, you'll notice that I moved your message to this existing discussion about chlamydia. I did this so you can connect with others who may be experiencing similar issues. Click VIEW & REPLY to read through past posts.

According to this information on Chlamydia from Mayo Clinic
"Chlamydia trachomatis is treated with antibiotics. You may receive a one-time dose, or you may need to take the medication daily or multiple times a day for five to 10 days.

In most cases, the infection resolves within one to two weeks. During that time, you should abstain from sex. Your sexual partner or partners also need treatment even if they have no signs or symptoms. Otherwise, the infection can be passed back and forth between sexual partners."

Has your boyfriend also gotten treatment?

My daughter has a lot of painful urination that comes and goes since a small toddler… they diagnosed her with cystitis… Which just means a very sensitive bladder… Oregano oil drops under the tongue three times a day helps a lot… The oregano oil needs to have the P73 in it… You can get it at vitamin Shoppe… Coconut oil helps her a lot. It is an antibacterial… I hope this isn’t too much info, but put it down there. It seems to ease her pain and she uses unscented soaps like kiss my face, olive oil, one they recommended Cetaphil, but it does not work… Purpose is a really good one to that’s the one I love and you can also use goat milk, bar soap, or castle soap keep trying different ones until you find the one you like the most… Try to eat healthy foods without a lot of cayenne pepper, or a lot of acid or fried foods… And whatever you do, don’t drink carbonated drinks or caffeinated drinks unless it is green tea… Green tea seems to help things a lot, too and water or just plain water. I hope this helps you at least some and I know it’s a very stressful thing to go through but you will get better. If you do these things God bless you and I wish you the best.
